I have brought my ewe lambs onto the 'home' paddock whilst tupping is taking place. There is very little grass, not that they can get to any with the snow and ice, but they are not interested in the hay. I have tempted them with bundles of fine meadow hay (believe me, its good stuff) but no response. I'm getting a bit worried they're getting enough to eat. They have ewe nuts every day and have a lick in the field with them, but they would rather dig around in the wood for bits of dead nettles and stuff rather touch the hay. I am wondering whether its because they don't know what it is and perhaps they'll come round to it once they can go back in with the older ewes and see them eating it. Does anyone else have this problem?
